So I'd like to throw out a question: What do you think LDraw.org's role is in the LDraw/LEGO (...) (22 years ago, 26-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

Pretty much, just install wine, then use it to install winzip. use wine to unpack the ldraw parts. run winzip under wine to unzip mlcad run mlcad under wine : ) There are some functions that don't work even with the latest version of Wine, but (...) (22 years ago, 26-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
